“**Ode to Chicken Fingers**Oh, crispy delights of golden hue,You beckon from the menu, true.Bathed in seasoned flour, kissed by oil,You ignite taste buds, a savory coil.Your tender flesh, a secret revealed,A symphony of crunch, a flavor field.Dipped in sauces, a saucy affair,Honey mustard, barbecue, or buffalo flair.From humble beginnings, you emerge,A humble bird transformed, a culinary surge.Fried to perfection, a crispy embrace,Each bite a celebration, a savory grace.In crowded diners or late-night dives,You're the star, the one that thrives.Accompanied by fries, a match made divine,Together, you dance on taste buds' fine line.So here's to you, chicken fingers bold,A handheld joy, a story untold.May your crunch echo through generations,Forever satisfying our hunger's sensations.**Bon appétit, crispy comrades!**“
“The food was amazing especially at the price point and I went back twice on Super Bowl Sunday -- which was also my first time ordering from here. I ordered the OG Nashville Hot and the Honey Butter sandwich. Both would absolutely out of this world. The chicken is fresh and not too heavily breaded but crispy and warm and the spice is fantastic. Could absolutely eat it daily.“
“Bantam King is my go-to spot for a great meal when in downtown DC. I lived right by here for 2 years, and every time I went to Bantam King, I had a fantastic meal.I've eaten a ton of fried chicken in my life all over the US, and a decent amount across DC. I can absolutely say that their fried chicken platter is some of the best fried chicken I've ever eaten. I've also had the chicken ramen. Both my wife, who is a huge ramen lover, and I think it's fantastic.I also enjoy the mint sweet tea, and the desserts are really good as well. The atmosphere is super fun as well, great for any small group or couples.You probably won't be able to get in with a massive group (it's a small space)...but that's not what this place is really for.I've eaten here on my birthday the past 2 years, and I see that continuing in the future.“
“The famous piri piri chicken chain from South Africa! I was excited to find this place but disappointed yet again. As it goes, chicken restaurants are usually overhyped by people who don’t know how to cook and/or have inferior palate. We have witnessed this many times: Chick Fila, for example.The chicken dishes are not bad considering that it is a chain. But the piri piri sauces they serve are sub par. All flavors taste the same. They are not even as good as the sauce you can pick up from the streets in Lisbon. They need to step up the game and bring the real piri piri sauce and get rid of those bland, uninspired ones.“
“Very delicious sandwich and good fries. My complaint is with the service. We ordered online and picked up the food. We paid extra .50 cents for each lettuce on each butger and got only one burger had lettuce. I also asked for Rooster sauce and honey mustard but instead received 6 honey mustard sauces. This was my first experience and I would eat here again for the food quality. Hopefully this was a one off.“
“I visited Chicken + Whiskey for the first time recently after hearing great things about it for years. I don't know why it's taken me this long to visit. The 14th St location has a fast casual chicken spot in the front and a "hidden" whiskey bar in the back, behind a commercial freezer door. I visited for happy hour on a Friday at 5 PM and we were the first people there. We enjoyed the cocktails and food, especially with the happy hour discount. Happy hour runs Mon-Fri, 5-7 PM and includes $2 off all beers and arepas, $3 off all cocktails and sanguiches/wraps, $9 pisco punch, and $15 beer + wings combo. We had the Pisco Punch, Squash It, and Sweater Weather cocktails which were all tasty and $9/$10 on happy hour. We got the wings and beer combo and the Borracho Wrap, recommended by the bartender. The wings were good if a little dry, and actually came with all 3 sauces on the side. The wrap ($10.25 on HH) was excellent, the perfect balance of textures and flavors. Very impressed. Service was quick and friendly. Overall, we had good experience, but there are a couple opportunities to improve. The cocktails were clearly fall cocktails and out of season now that it's April. The beer + wings combo was a bit disappointing because it was only for the Tecate beer (not any beer). The 3.75% surcharge is also unwelcome. Finally, for a first timer, the food/drinks situation was a little confusing. Before visiting, we thought we would be able to order from the full menu at the back bar, but it actually has a limited food menu. Then, the door to the bar has a sign saying you can't take food and drinks back and forth between the front chicken shop and back bar, which gave us pause. The happy hour menu mentions a discount on "sanguiches" but the main drinks/food menu doesn't use this term. And while the menu design is very stylish, it's also very busy and a little hard to fully read and parse.“
“You know when they say, "Hole in the walls have the best food." This is definitely true about this place. You would not expect delicious Indian cuisine from a chicken and waffle take out, but boy is it good. Love the chicken Biryani and their whole wings. Just plain good fast food, at a reasonable price with large portions enough for leftovers. .“
“Food: Visited on a Saturday night around 7. It wasn’t busy for me at all. I ordered a Nashville (medium spiciness) sandwich and a honey butter (mild spiciness) sandwich at the kiosk ($25). I liked the spicy kick of the Nashville sandwich that I may attempt the next spicy level. The mild honey butter sandwich is great for people who cannot handle spicy food. The rooster sauce is a free add-on on the side that was good as well. Tip: it may be a little messy so grab napkins.Tables: there are plentiful tables that were clean. The facility workers come around to tidy up the area, but don’t forget to clean up after yourself as well.Restrooms: clean public restroom with water fountains located right outside.Wheelchair accessibility: Push open doors that actually work. Spacious between the food stalls and tables. Accessible bathroom stall (1) with low sink counters.“
“First time visiting Roaming Rooster. The food was excellent, customer service was great, and surprisingly, they were playing old school hip-hop (The Bridge Is Over by BDP). The fries were boardwalk style. The additional sauces were a pleasant surprise. I ordered the honey butter with medium heat with oreo milkshake and the buffalo mild with half-and-half. The ice machine was broken, but the owner or manager mentioned going next door to accommodate us. Needless to say, we'll be back to try other selections.“
“very rarely give five ★ ☆ ✰ ✮ ✯ but this location deserves it.Ginele deserves a raise!the customer service is exceptional.the staff are attentive, friendly and thoughtful even on busy days.the food is always on point and orders come out quickly.definitely leading the way for nando’s locations in the DMV.“
“The food was fine, but damn, the service was on point. The ladies who work there are so hospitable. It was awesome. I had been to this Nando's many many years ago and the ladies who worked here back then were **awful** - SO rude. Now it's like night and day. Keep up the good work, Nando's!“
“Review is for the chicken wings: delicious sauce options and perfectly crispy and crackly crust. Considering how crispy these wings stay even after sitting for a while the recipe for the batter/brine is definitely on point. They're always perfectly cooked as well. I hope they get more business because the block needs decent food options like this.“
“Cool place for pretty cheap drinks in the Union Market area. Decent cocktail, beer, wine selection in a no frills environment with pool and beer pong. Bartenders are super friendly and service is quick! One downside is that the bathrooms here are really gross.“
“This is one of my favorite locations in DC. I like the customer service, food and the drive thru is a major plus.I also like that you have the option to go inside to place your orders and ample free street parking.Great Job Georgia Ave. Popeyes . Keep up the good work. ?“
“This was a very good Popeyes. It was very good for fast food. I tried the new Popeyes chicken sandwich and it was very good! I tried the plain and the spicy and I liked the spicy best. It added much more flavor and taste than the plain. This Popeyes was very clean and there was a line, however it did not take long at all. The staff was very nice. Again, it was very good for fast food and I would go back again.“
“Excellent food. My dad brought me here about two weeks ago. He really likes the chicken soup. He always talks about it. Now, this is our fourth time this month. Arroz Chaufa is delicious, chicken is really good. The restaurant seems very clean all the time. Good job!Definitely recommend this food. Very affordable & fresh food.“
“I work close to YOUNG'S!! IT'S literally the best fried chicken breast I've ever had it's so good! I live in Baltimore so I've eaten from several chicken spots! But this chicken is on another level of goodness! If they were open on weekends I would drive an hour to get it that's how good it is!Parking: Enough parking“
“Spicebird is a take-out place inside Makan. Ordered the half chicken with two sides - chicken n wood ear mushroom and the cold noodles. Additional two sides of the crispy potato and fried rice. Although all 4 were great, I loved the chicken n friend rice most. $18 for the half chicken and two sides is a great value meal and the ingredients were fresh! Loved itVegetarian options: This is mostly a non-vegetarian place. There maybe a side or two with veg options“
“Good tasting food. In general, the service of cashiers for foreigners is a bit annoying for them. Great table service. The delicious chicken; the spectacular vegetarian dishVegetarian options: SpectacularKid-friendliness: It is not a space for children. Limited space for them and not so wide hallways“
“Today was my first time visiting this Popeyes location. Their beverage fountain was not working, so they gave me an lemonade....that was nice and attitude from one guy was very negative but the niceness of the other co worker made up for my discomfort....May God Bless the individuals that show love and concern, they renew my faith in humanity ?????????“
“Shout out to Jordan G. He took my large order. A side & kids meal got omitted. Went back the next day. It was SUPER BUSY but he was very courteous and quickly made the items. For some reason their mac & cheese has never been on point. Most other dishes are very good. Staff are friendly. Go when it's not busy.“
